A Russian Blasphemy Case.

Odessa Dispatch in London Daily News
/ was present yesterday in the Appellate
Court here when appeal was heard from a
Russian reasant named Krzyzanovski against
the sentence of six months imprisonment ad-
judged him by the Kamenetz- Pedolsk Tribunal
for blasphemy. The appellants offense was
this: Tired and weary after long days labor
in the harvest field last year. he entered the viii
lage tavern and drank a glass of vodka After
this appetizer he was supplied with a small meat
roll. called in Russian prog" The peasant
found the "pirog" such exceliant eating that ne
exclaimed: II would rather kiss the girl who
made this prog than tha Icon I" The latter is
the sacred picture never absent from any Rus
sirn habitation, before which it is usual
for visitors TO uncover and cross themselves
The peasants exclamation was highly compli-
mentary to the cook OF the tavern but the par
ish priest, TO whom it was reported heard and
Judged il in different light Hence the prose-
cution and sentence. The peasant, whom I saw
enter the box and devoutly cross himself before
the Icon" in court, was middle-aged, jovial,
good tempered looking man. who appeared much
relieved by the court reducing the original sen
tcnee to one months arrest.

A Bishops ELIGIBILITY.

Baltimore American.
Of the SIXTY odd Bishops of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church in the United States forty three or
more than a majority. have confirmed the cleo
ton Of the Right Rev. w. F. Adams, as bishop
of the Diocese of Easton. But one bishop has
dissented and that's Bishop Burgess, of Spring
field. H.. who, while speaking highly
of Mr.. Adams. objected the ground
that he was ineligible, having resigned as mis-
sionary bishop OF New Mexico. His objection
is founded on canon As section 16 subsection 4,
Church Digest, which reads: mo diocesan or
assistant bishop whose resignation has been con-
summated shall under any circumstances pc eli
gible to any diocese now In union which may
hereafter be admitted into union with this
church" The Rev. DR.. Barber. of Cambridge,
says that the is restricted to it's literal in
depreciation to diocesan and assistant bishops,
and is in no sense applicable to missionary bish-
ops. That this is tho accepted construction
of the church is evidenced by tho fact that at
the last General Convention o proposition made
before the House of Bishops that the canon be
made to include missionary bishops voted
down. The question Of Bishop Adams being
legally elected practically settled as a MAORI
ty of the bishops, having in mind tbs canon re-
ferred to, have reported favorably. and all of
the standing committees yet heard from, though
not a majority, have been unanimous in indors-
ing the election

The Railroads In Glover.

The returns Of railroad earnings from month
to month show that the transportation compan-
les are making money rapidly. The latest re-
turns show that in the month Of june lib roads
earned s27, 577, G5S. against $24 377, 1882 in June
last year. an increase Of So, 776, or ID per
cent, with increase in mileage OF a little
over per cent, the total being 62, 623 miles in
1887 and So o02 in 1856. In juno this year.
therefore. the gross earnings per mile On the III
roads were $40, against Sab in 1886. and 1914
in 1885. increase of 81 per cent over 1856, and
l74 per cent over 1885. In June, 1883. the
earnings per mile of the seventy roads
reported were $474 z per cent greater
that the June earnings per mile
in 1887. For the half year ending June 30, Ill
roads report earnings of $40, 459, 725, against
2l46 266 668 for the first half of 1856, increase
Of s24, 1G3, 057, or about IL per cent. Only seven
roads show smaller totals than in 1886. and these
are unimportant, aggregating only 1920. 351 less
than last year. On the basis of the June mile
age, the earnings per mile for the half year were
g. 722 against 50, 479 in 1886, increase of $243
per mile, nearly 10 per cent The percentage
Of the increase in the net earnings has beea
much larger than the percentage of increase in
the gross earnings, and the detailed statements
of the roads will probably show net earnings
Der mile in the half year at least ID per cent
greater than last year.

attained IS that Of Prof. Elisha Gray's
'telantograph. a Geographic apparatus
which transmits the handwriting or any
other picture traced upon paper any dis
lance. This will be highly valued by
business men and bankers. The valua-
bic feature of the invention is the plate
on which is laid the paper written on by
the sender. \ pencil or any sharp object
may be used to write with, and the re-
ceiying machine traces the message with
a pencil or any thing capable of marking,
reproducing the form Of the message pre-

Breaking Down and Building In.

When a man breaks down in the matter OF
physical strength, the question of its recovery
depends in great measure upon the length Of
time he allows to elapse before adopting medic
lnal means to recuperate it. A tonic, which
gives a speedy and powerful impulse to the
processes of digestion and assimilation, is the
best auxiliary he can employ, and he should
resort to it promptly. The most reliable de-
pendcncc of the feeble, the aged and the ner-
Nous, has ever proved to be Hostetter's Ston-
ach Bltters, an iuyigorant Of national reputa-
tion and proven worth, commended by medical
